Folk Art & Splendid Views! Relax, Explore,Entertain in Style!!

A gorgeous place that is the perfect distance from town for people who enjoy walking as we do. The house is perfectly equipped and we didn’t lack anything. We enjoyed the hammock and rooftop views. It was a great refuge to take a siesta when the day’s heat was overwhelming. We would love to return.

Thank you.

This is the second time I have stayed at this property, once two years ago in the larger house below with three friends and this time with my wife and one other couple in this upper level apartment. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay each time. The neighborhood is a fifteen minute walk to the north part of the city center and 20 minutes to the restaurant area( and best wine shop) in the Reforma neighborhood to the east. There is an excellent breakfast and lunch spot 5 minutes away on the same route. Every day we walked to one area or another and then took a taxi back. Any issues that arise can be quickly delt with by phone or e-mail to Mimi, or phone call to the caretakers, Judith and Alejandro( Spanish-speaking only). There are many dogs in the neighborhood, but they are on the rooftops and not in the street. They love to communicate during the night, as do a couple of roosters, so wearing ear plugs at night was very helpful. This goes with the territory and I expect would be true in every neighborhood in the city. We felt safe everywhere we walked in the city, much more than any city in the U.S.

Judi, Alejandro, and Mimi are great hosts; very friendly and helpful

This is a well appointed homey, comfortable, upstairs apartment. The entire property is beautifully maintained by a dedicated husband/wife team. The walk to town was not too difficult and the location was quiet and felt very safe. We were 2 couples that thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

My friend Sharon and I spent nine days here in October. The apartment - more like a home, has been great for us. Lots of room, well appointed, greater for cooking and in a fairly quiet neighborhood. It's a bit of a walk to downtown, but we figured - more walking, more eating.:). Although we were a bit above the city with a great view of the surrounding mountains, our walk home was only a very gradual uphill walk.

Mimi and the caretakers, Alejandro and Judith were all very helpful during our stay.

There is a small market up the hill about three blocks away where we picked up fresh squeezed orange juice several times.

We would definitely recommend this as a place to stay in Oaxaca.
